Adrian,

I take your point that the healthcare vertical must end somewhere, but I
can't quite follow this argument:

I suggest that authentication, authorization, delegation, and credential
> management... are ... not specific to any particular vertical. The OpenID
> Foundation and HEART are as good a place to deal with these standards ...


But HEART is OpenID's *Health* Relationship Trust Workgroup; as such, it
appears to be a health-vertical-oriented approach, even if the underlying
technology isn't vertical-specific. I don't see many efforts defining (say)
healthcare-specific alternatives to OAuth or SAML (or UMA). Instead, I see
groups using those standards much the same way HEART is doing. But I may be
missing the thrust of your argument.

What specifically are the stuffing-too-much-into-the-health-vertical
activities that you are arguing against?
